Question:Every voice has its truth
(first written with Richard’s pencil)

Every voice has its truth
Even if full of lies
Each lie has its own truth
And covers a shameful emptiness.

Copiously ornamenting, excruciatingly adorning
Hollows.

Each life has its dullness
Each existence is trite
Living is a tragedy
Or ordinariness.

Your fictions made you real
In a comedy of sad truths.
You gave me your words
But they told me nothing
Except promises of more words.

What was
Is not
But words
Are real
You told
Me nothing
Except

That your voice had its truth
That your fiction was real
And that your life was
A tragedy
Of ordinary
Sufferings.

This is so sophisticated. The last two stanzas are a perfect poem all on their own. You've made us unhate the mongrel, replacing anger with pity, a more fitting emotion. I love this very much. TD

i like this poem , it has a nice flow to it and a couple of your lines i really enjoyed, it keep reading the poem . good job

This is beautiful and disturbing, and so sweet that it was written with that particular pencil. I must say that the fourth and sixth stanza spoke the most to me. Not only were they about the relationship, but also about poetry (my interpretation), our promises in the words, our tragedy of ordinary sufferings that people (especially on this site) dub trite. This was exquisite. Thank you so much.

Yes, "words are real." This poem is an extraordinary display of the reality of words. The ending, "A tragedy/Of ordinary/Sufferings is spectacular.

You have an extraordinary way of painting with adjectives and metaphors. Absolutely brilliant!

It flows easily & the last two parts are perfect on their own ,,,,,,,,,,,,,
I really liked it
